Sutton Conservation Commission Aligns with Douglas on 72 Main Street Enforcement; Restoration Plan Required
The Conservation Commission discussed an ongoing enforcement case at 72 Main Street, involving property alterations potentially on town-owned land in Douglas and Sutton. The commission agreed to align their actions with Douglas's enforcement order, which mandates a cease and desist and full restoration. They decided to require a similar restoration plan for the portion of the site within Sutton's jurisdiction and stipulated that the property owner must present an update on hiring an engineer for the restoration plan at the next meeting.
Conservation Commission Approves Tree Removal with Replanting Condition at 18 Newton Drive
The Conservation Commission reviewed and approved a Request for Determination (RDA) for 18 Newton Drive, allowing for the removal of a tree in poor health along the shoreline of Singleary Lake. The approval came with the condition that the applicant, Steven Anderson, replant one native tree species. The commission voted unanimously to issue a negative determination for the project, ensuring no negative impact on the wetland resource area.
Negative Determination Issued for National Grid Pole Installation at 39 Deval Road
The Conservation Commission held a hearing for 39 Deval Road, where National Grid requested a permit to install electricity by adding a pole on the other side of the road. The commission issued a negative determination for the project, finding that the proposed work would not impact wetlands. The decision was based on an assessment that the new pole would be installed along an existing utility corridor and be sufficiently distant from a nearby wetland.
Enforcement Order Amended for Wetland Fill Violation at 320 Putnam Hill Road; Restoration Required
The Conservation Commission discussed an enforcement matter at 320 Putnam Hill Road concerning fill placed in a wetland. The commission, after reviewing field findings and wetland delineations, determined that the fill encroached upon a locally jurisdictional wetland. They decided to amend the enforcement order to require the property owner to remove the fill, replant trees on a one-to-one basis, and submit a restoration plan by a specified date, while also allowing them to file a Notice of Intent (NOI) for future construction, such as a garage.
Letter to be Sent Regarding Discrepancy at 67 Mariam Road Property
The Conservation Commission addressed an issue at 67 Mariam Road where observed fresh crushed stone in an area indicated by GIS mapping to contain a brook. Based on aerial photography that did not align with field observations, the commission decided to send a letter to the property owner requesting an explanation for the discrepancy and potential unpermitted work.
